Speaker 1: Yo, what's up, gen Z, it's your boys. Aiden Cruz
Speaker 1: here back with another episode of the dopamine Detox. You
Speaker 1: know that feeling when you scroll through TikTok and suddenly
Speaker 1: it's three am and you haven't even brushed your teeth. Yeah,
Speaker 1: we've all been there, that constant need to be on,
Speaker 1: the notifications, the likes, the never ending scroll. It's like
Speaker 1: our brains are wired for chaos. Right, But guess what
Speaker 1: we can rewire that thing. This week, we're talking about
Speaker 1: building a daily routine that actually promotes relaxation and calmness.
Speaker 1: Think of it as your own personal chill pill factory.
Speaker 1: No more anxiety spirals, no more late night existential dread,
Speaker 1: just pure unadulterated zen vibes. So buckle up, buttercup, because
Speaker 1: we're diving deep into the secrets of serenity. Here are
Speaker 1: five key takeaways that'll have you feeling like a freaking Buddha.
Speaker 1: First off, ditch the phone before bed, seriously put it
Speaker 1: in another room. Treat your sleep like the sacred ritual.
Speaker 1: It is no scrolling, no doom scrolling right up. Shut.
Speaker 1: I ever heard of melatonin. That's the hormone that regulates
Speaker 1: your sleep cycle. Your phone's blue light messes with that
Speaker 1: whole system. It's like a digital vampire sucking the life
Speaker 1: out of your zzis. Next up, morning meditation. I know,
Speaker 1: I know it sounds like something your grandma would do,
Speaker 1: but trust me, even five minutes can make a world
Speaker 1: of difference. Just find a quiet space, close your eyes,
Speaker 1: and focus on your breath. You'll be surprised how much
Speaker 1: calmer you feel after just a few sessions. Think of
Speaker 1: it as your brain doing a reset button before the
Speaker 1: day kicks off. Thirdly, move your body. Now. I'm not
Speaker 1: talking about grueling gym workouts unless that's your thing. A
Speaker 1: simple walk in nature, some yoga stretches, or even a
Speaker 1: dance party in your living room will do wonders for
Speaker 1: your mental state. Exercise releases in dorphins, which are like
Speaker 1: natural mood boosters. Plus getting outside and soaking up some
Speaker 1: vitamin D can help regulate those pesky hormones. Fourthly, prioritize boundaries.
Speaker 1: Learn to say no without feeling guilty. Protect your time
Speaker 1: and energy social media. Check it once a day, max
Speaker 1: work emails, respond during work hours. You don't have to
Speaker 1: be constantly available twenty four to seven. Set those boundaries
Speaker 1: like you're building a digital fortress around your peace of mind,
Speaker 1: and finally, indulge in self care activities that bring you joy.
Speaker 1: Read a book, take a hot bath, listen to your
Speaker 1: favorite music, spend time with loved ones, whatever makes you
Speaker 1: feel good. Remember, taking care of yourself isn't selfish, it's essential.
Speaker 1: It's like giving your brain a mental spa day. And
Speaker 1: let's be honest, who doesn't deserve that. Speaking of self
Speaker 1: care and finding your zen, let me tell you about
Speaker 1: Emma Chamberlain, the Queen of relatable content. This girl started
Speaker 1: with vlog style videos on YouTube back in twenty seventeen.
Speaker 1: She wasn't afraid to show her messy side, her awkward moments,
Speaker 1: and her genuine struggles, something a lot of gen z
Speaker 1: can relate to. Now, she's got millions of followers, her
Speaker 1: own coffee brand, and is even making waves in fashion world.
Speaker 1: But through it all, Emma has managed to stay grounded.
Speaker 1: She openly talks about her mental health journey, emphasizes the
Speaker 1: importance of taking breaks, and advocates for self care. Talk
Speaker 1: about a vibe check, think about it. Emma built an
Speaker 1: empire by being real, vulnerable, and prioritizing her well being.
Speaker 1: It's proof that you can have success without sacrificing your sanity.
Speaker 1: She's basically living proof that chilling out can actually level
Speaker 1: up your game. So remember these key takeaways. Ditch the
Speaker 1: phone before bed, meditate like a boss, move your body,
Speaker 1: set those boundaries, and prioritize self care activities that bring
Speaker 1: you joy. It's not about becoming some mythical zen master overnight.
Speaker 1: It's about making small changes that add up to big results.
